Speech/Language Pathology

We offer Speech/Language therapy in both inpatient and outpatient settings. For adults, we specialize in offering therapy to help patients relearn how to communicate: relearn safe swallowing skills: rebuild thinking, memory and problem solving: improve voice production, quality and volume. Speech therapy is done on an individual basis or in a group setting.

In pediatrics, we evaluate and treat children with a variety of diagnoses, and specialize in offering therapy to help children improve communication skills, social skills, improve voice production, swallowing, and assist with feeding difficulties. Speech therapy is done on an individual basis or in a group setting.

Our goal is to provide our patients with the most innovative treatment options to maximize return of speech,language, cognition, swallowing and/or voice functioning.
